Continuing in the line of works like [1]} and [2]}, we use a simulation framework to explore the dynamics of precarity. In this simulation framework, individual agents make choices (and are subject to decisions) within a system, and are described by parameters for income, wealth and health. We use population-level economic data to initialize the system, and allow the agents to make either locally reasonable decisions (in a bounded rationality-like framework) or allow them to maximize expected utility within epochs. Using a simulation framework with realistic input parameters and controls allows us to observe the evolution of the system in a way that would be difficult to do formally (like for example, [3]} is able to do for the more specific problem of income shocks), and allows us to experiment with different kinds of interventions.
